Jane Gifford has been recording her dreams and making work exploring dream language and narrative, the cumulative process of dreaming and notions of the diary, through drawing, painting, printmaking, installation and video, for twelve years.
She has had several solo exhibitions in London, Manchester, and New York, and has participated in numerous group shows.
